the boiling point of a water solution of any stubstance is _____(higher,lower) than the boiling point of water higher
the freezing point of a water solution of any substance is ______(higher,lower) than the freezing point of water lower
In a solution of sugar and water, the water is the? Solvent
In the disolving process negative polar ends are attracted to____ polar ends. Positive
Grinding a solute increases its surface area making it disolve more____? quickly
A gases solubility is best in a liquid solvent when the solution is under____ pressure? high
different substances have____ solubilities different
The consentration of a solution of two or more liquids is expressed as a percentage by___? volume
As the temperature of a liquid solvent increases the amount of soild solute that can b dissolved in the solvent usually___? increases
Lines on a graph that show how much a solute a solvent can hold at a given temperature are called ___? Solubility curves
In the ionization process water pulls the molecules of a polar substance apart into __? ions
If a solute is a ___ the solution can conduct electricity elecrolyte
The more particles of a solute that are added to a solution the ___ of the freezing point of the solution lower
When a solid is being dissolved in a liquid stiring ___ the disolving process speeds up
a gas dissolves faster in a liquid if the temperature in the liquid is ___ increased
a gases solubility is faster in a liquid when ender ___ pressure high
by stiring a gas in a liquid its solubility___ the dissolving process slows down
a solid dissolves faster in a liquid if the temperature in the liquid is ___ increased
the __ the surface area of a solid the faster it will dissolve larger
why dont water and oil combine to form a solution? water is polar and oil is nonpolar
why is water referred to as the "universal solvent?" it can dissolve so many things
What have no positive and negative areas___ Nonpolar molecules
Carbon and hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon molecules share electrons___ Equally
Ethonal can dissolve iodine as well as water because ___ it has one polar and nonpolar end
What dissolves what is described by like dissolves like
when working with nonpolar solvents good ventelation is important becuase nonpolar solvents tend to evaporate more___than water producing high consentrations of vapor more readily
___ soluble vitamins such as vitamin a can acumulate in our tissues an can b toxic in high consetrations Fat soluble
____ soluble vitamins such as vitamin c can be flushed out of the body before they can b used an therefore must b replaced constantly water soluble
Water molecules are attracted by an cling to molecules of ___ solutes making then sticky and slowing evaporization polar

a specific solute added to a solvent in order to lower the freezing point of the solvent Dilute
solution that contains all the solute it can hold at a given tempature Saturated solution
Process by which water pulls the molecules in polar substances into ions ionization
any solution that can dissolve any solute at a given temperature Unsaturated solution
the substance being dissolved solute
the substance doing the dissolving solvent
solutions can be liquids gases or ____ solids
alloys are _____ solutions solid

to mix solids to make an alloy solution you must ____ the solids melt
speeds up dissolving by bringing more fresh solvent into contact with more solute stirring
dissolving occurs at the ____ of a solid ???
